old hedge clipper sheers knife

(1/1)

snedeker:
I got the shears from my dad and I imagine they are upwards of 100 years old.  Had blades cut off.  Shaped partial hidden tang and added a Bocote and wenge handle  7" blade, 3/16" thick.  Still have to do some thinning because of the single bevel deal on the blade.  Question is how to finish the surface, polish, sand out.

Pat B:
Great to see you back, Dave.  Looks like a nice knife. I like the rustic look.

White Falcon:
Nice. Looks like a pig sticker.

Pappy:
Cool looking knife, that should be some good steel. Guess you could sand it out, I would just be careful not to sand out the name on it, I think that is always cool when you can leave that.  :)
